With the daily Building Permit feed continuing to be on the fritz, it's back to finding out about approved permits on Mondays, via the Never-Ending PDF File. Today's news (on pages 182 and 186, for those of you following along at home) is that the building permit has been approved for 909 New Jersey Avenue, JPI's 244-unit residential project on the block where the Nexus Gold Club recently closed; an excavation permit was approved as well. In one of the articles on the Nexus closing, JPI said it was planning to begin demolition on the site in March. In other permit news, a bunch of soil boring permits were approved (page 183) for the Monument Realty/Half Street site.

The next Police Service Area (PSA) 105 meeting, which covers Capitol Hill as well as most of Near Southeast, is scheduled for Saturday, Jan. 27 at 10 am, and is being held in the 1st floor community meeting room at Capitol Hill Tower--and they're offering a tour of the CHT building after the meeting as added incentive.
